Midwest Building Exteriors
Best Overall in Hudson — St. Croix Falls office 30 minutes north, full Wisconsin licensure, locally pulled permits, 99% claim approval.
Midwest Building Exteriors anchors our Wisconsin operations from our St. Croix Falls office on Highway 35 — Hudson is a core service area, not an occasional Wisconsin trip. Our installation history across Hudson includes Downtown Hudson, North Hudson, Willow River, Mallalieu, Birkmose, and the newer subdivisions east of I-94.
Our certifications: GAF Master Elite (top 2% of US roofers, with full Designer shingle line authorization), James Hardie Elite Preferred, Andersen Certified Contractor, Trex Pro. We carry full Wisconsin contractor licensure (DFI registration) plus Minnesota Class A licensure — Hudson permits pulled by our team are filed under our active Wisconsin registration.
Wisconsin permit handling is one of our specific competencies. We pull every Hudson permit in-house, schedule all required inspections on the homeowner's behalf, and maintain active relationships with the City of Hudson building department. Documented zero-miss rate on Hudson inspections.
Our insurance claim process: drone aerial inspection, ground-level core samples, attic ventilation check, full Xactimate scope to your adjuster within 48 hours, in-person attendance at every adjuster meeting (free), unlimited supplement handling. We work directly with all major Wisconsin carriers (American Family, State Farm, Allstate, West Bend, Liberty Mutual) as well as Minnesota carriers for residents who moved cross-river. Our 24-month claim approval rate is 99% across 842 submitted claims.
Storm response from St. Croix Falls is fast — Hudson is 30 minutes south on Highway 35 or 25 minutes via I-94, and our emergency tarping crews typically reach any Hudson address within 90 minutes of a storm call. Hudson is often the first call we get during western Wisconsin storms, because the storms reach Hudson first.
Full-spectrum service: roofing (asphalt, synthetic slate, metal, cedar), James Hardie fiber cement and LP SmartSide siding, Andersen windows, K-style, half-round, and copper gutters, Trex/AZEK composite decking.
Every Hudson installation crew is W-2 employee — drug-tested, background-checked, Wisconsin workers' comp covered. Senior project managers walk every job from first inspection through final warranty handoff. We do not subcontract production. Call (612) 750-6051 or request a free drone inspection online — typical Hudson scheduling within 48 hours.
